O.o you need help, immediately.

Like, now. Get off the computer and find someone who can get you to a treatment center.

Ever heard of OverEaters Anonymous.  

Even if its just a mild ED issue.  It teaches self control, with management over your weaknesses.  

Its just like alcoholics anonymous, or Narcotics Anonym.

Why is it that everyone want's the easy way out? It doesn't exist without paying the price. If you have the will to starve yourself, you should have the power to get yourself to the gym. Unless of course you are already underweight, then you already have a serious problem.

ugh. Please grow the fuck up. An ED isn't about self control, it's about a broken person.
So you want to lose weight, go learn how to do it. Someone with a real ED didn't just decide to start starving themselves so that they would be thin. Most have tons of issues with control over other aspects of their lives, abuse, ocd, or other problems.

Think about all the times you've tried to starve yourself and stopped. Why? because life outside of obsessing and self hatred is more pleasant. For me, it isn't. Think about that. An ED was the one place in my life where I could have control over what was happening to my body and my life.

EDs aren't just extreme diets for people with a lot of will power, so please PLEASE take your wannarexia somewhere else.

you need an ED buddy. someone who will keep you in check and make sure you purge after every meal (if you let yourself go that far).

Persevere, OP. Anorexia doesn't happen over night. It'll be hard at the beginning, but once you start losing those pounds, you'll come to love the power and then you'll actually have an ED.
